Organic Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies





This amazing recipe is a fantastic breakfast for people on the go. You can easily make a batch and freeze some for those busy mornings. Completely satisfying, but without tons of unwanted carbs and calories. Enjoy!

1/3 cup no sugar organic apple sauce
2 cups uncooked quick-cooking oats
1/4 cup skim milk
3 mashed bananas (ripe)
1/2 cup raisins or cranberries
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp Turbinado sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients in a bowl really well or use a food processor to blend everything except for the oats and fruit (which you can mix in after). Let this mixture stand for at least 5 minutes to let the oats hydrate. Heap the dough by tablespoons onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes and let cool.
